I’m eager to see if anything changes.

Stumbleupon Traffic – The DON’Ts – I love social news networks and dislike bannings (on Digg and Stumbleupon), but this post just seems a bit much. I know people love participating on these sites and are afraid of getting banned, but sometimes I think they freak themselves out.

How Village Voice Media Uses Digg To Game Their Traffic Numbers – I know this is a few days old, but it’s still important. I don’t like how “insider” information like this is printed as a way to game Digg. First rule of fight club.

Faithless on Facebook: One in five under-30s dump partners through online social networks – Bizarre. I can’t imagine any mature person doing this (especially in a relationship, not a fling) without first breaking up in person – if not over the phone in the first! But as far as announcing engagements, etc., I can totally imagine that.

4-Billion-Diggs – Now this is simply impressive. Way to go, algo!
